Adele. She’s on a par with Jayne MacDonald to me. They both should be singing Sixties hits in nursing homes.

OTOH, I'd rather be marooned on a desert island with Jayne McD than Adele. Jayne and I would roll our sleeves up and build shelters and rain water collection systems and fires and make tuber stews. We'd mash up fruit and distill it to an alcoholic drink and be pissed out of our tits and lithe as whippets when finally rescued by the Australian coastguard.

Adele would cry and moan about missing her boyfriend. And write songs about it.

The Beatles and Elvis. Never understood the hype about either.

David Bowie - couldn’t sing in tune to save his life
Elton John - dull, dull,dull
Sting - Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers were proper musicians and he was just a whiney pub singer
The Beatles- average pop songs

Muse... I saw them live about 15 years ago and everyone I went with said it was the best thing they'd ever seen... I felt like I'd been at a completely different gig to everyone else!

Oh god, yes, most of these! Everyone went mental here (Edinburgh) when that Swift woman came - half my team paid fortunes to go and dress in sequins (formerly apparently intelligent, mature women were raving about the meaning and depth of her lyrics. I dutifully listened to some of her music - nope, don’t get it). Gary Barlow is up here next year and I just can’t even summon apathy.

The Smiths. Can't stand them.

Pamosonic · 01/12/2024 00:38

Radiohead. It's the singers mumbling voice i think. Least with Coldplay you can actually understand the lyrics he is singing which is a big part of the whole connection of music into ones consciousness.
